Expert Care for Older Pools in Historic Jacksonville
The Riverside-Avondale area is one of Jacksonville's most cherished historic districts, with homes dating from the early 1900s through the mid-century era. While many of these homes have been lovingly restored, their pools often present unique challenges. Older plumbing, dated equipment, worn surfaces, and non-standard configurations are common in this area.
These historic neighborhoods also feature some of Jacksonville's largest and most mature trees. The canopy of live oaks, magnolias, and other species that gives these neighborhoods their character also means pools collect above-average amounts of leaves, Spanish moss, pollen, and other organic debris.
JAX Pool Care has experience working with the types of pools found in Riverside, Avondale, Ortega, and Murray Hill. We understand that older pools require patience, knowledge, and sometimes creative solutions. Whether your pool needs routine maintenance, an equipment upgrade, or a full resurfacing, we can help.
Older Pool Considerations
Aging Equipment
Older pumps, filters, and heaters need more frequent inspection and are candidates for energy-saving upgrades.
Worn Pool Surfaces
Older plaster develops rough spots, stains, and pitting that harbor algae and make cleaning harder.
Older Plumbing
Legacy plumbing systems may develop leaks or reduced flow that require experienced diagnosis.
Mature Tree Canopy
Historic live oaks and other large trees drop heavy debris, Spanish moss, and pollen into pools constantly.
